Christmas is also a reminder that Jesus will be back. The Lord himself will descend from heaven (1 Thessalonians 4:16).

Waiting, we pray, “Come, Lord Jesus” (Revelation 22:20).

Do you ever fall on your face when you pray? Do you address God as the Sovereign Lord?

And when we cried to the Lord, he heard our voice and sent an angel and brought us out of Egypt (Numbers 20:15-16).

David “appealed to him who has all men’s hearts in his hand . . . He obtained a gracious answer to this prayer.”*

When that happens, gratitude is never your (my) first response.

There’s no formula for expressing gratitude when you’re too numb to respond, so I don’t have an answer here. The best idea I can give: tell your unedited feelings to the One who sees—and years down the road, if time has healed enough to show you any positive outcome from the situation, say thank you then.”* (bold mine)

The gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 6:23).

We pray with gratitude to our Sovereign Lord who calls us his very own.
